Whether you're a frequent visitor to Europe or just an armchair traveler, the surprising and extraordinary stories in Lingo will forever change the way you think about the continent, and may even make you want to learn a new language. Lingo spins the reader on a whirlwind tour of sixty European languages and dialects, sharing quirky moments from their histories and exploring their commonalities and differences. Most European languages are descended from a single ancestor, a language not unlike Sanskrit known as Proto-Indo-European (or PIE for short), but the continent's ever-changing borders and cultures have given rise to a linguistic and cultural diversity that is too often forgotten in discussions of Europe as a political entity. Lingo takes us into today's remote mountain villages of Switzerland, where Romansh is still the lingua franca, to formerly Soviet Belarus, a country whose language was Russified by the Bolsheviks, to Sweden, where up until the 1960s polite speaking conventions required that one never use the word "you" in conversation, leading to tiptoeing questions of the form: "Would herr generaldirekt r Rexed like a biscuit?" Spanning six millenia and sixty languages in bite-size chapters, Lingo is a hilarious and highly edifying exploration of how Europe speaks.Binding Type: Paperback

He loves them! Eats the entire strip!
Pattern Name: Strip, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Our puppy is the pickiest eater ever ! But he loves these chewes , Kingsley is a tiny Morky that will turn up his nose at just about everything . But one day I saw the chicken chews on Amazon, and thought let’s try . To our surprise , HE LOVES them , and actually looks for them in his treat Jar. They are easy for his little teeth to chew on , and he can carry them to his hiding place, for when he wants a good chew.. the great thing about them is that there is no longer any uneaten bits of raw hide chews all over the floor to step on . He eats the entire chicken strip, and I no longer have to worry about him chocking on tough leather chew strips that smell, and get slimy

Chihuahua puppy loves these!
Pattern Name: Strip, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My little 13-week-old, 2.4-lb Chihuahua pup loves these chews. They are the perfect size for her tiny mouth.
I hold them for her, and when enough gets chewed that it could break off and possibly cause a choking hazard, I cut that soft part off with the scissors.
-I would never give them to her unsupervised.
-Will purchase again.

I take 3 pills , sleep like a baby
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
Melatonin works well for me as a sleep aid. I take 3 pills, and I usually fall asleep within about 30 minutes.
It helps me relax and fall asleep faster, especially on nights when my mind is active or I have trouble winding down. The effect feels gentle, not harsh.
It is helpful for occasional use, but I don’t rely on it every night.
